Hi ive been working on a custom region for Virgin UK to remove Sky Sports HD channels and think ive manged to work it out via providers file. This way users would have the option to have ABM remove them or not by using your area Virgin UK.
Attached is cable_uk_virgin.xml I have only added 41053 Leeds Custom and have added blacklist for Sky Sports Main Event for testing.
This is what I have done:
Line 97 added
Code:
<configuration key="hdcustom_41053_dvbc_uk" netid="41053" bouquettype="hd" frequency="666750" symbol_rate="6952000" system="0" modulation="3">41053 Leeds Custom</configuration>
Line 165 added
Code:
custom = True if "custom" in bouquet_key else False
Line 176 added
Code:
blacklistSport = ['SkySports MainEventHD',]
#Channel names have quotes, channel numbers do not. Example: ['ITV HD', 250, 500]
This is where we add all the Sky Sports HD channels and maybe more in the future
Line 207 added
Code:
if custom and service["service_type"] != 2 and (service["number"] in blacklistSport or service["service_name"] in blacklistSport):
skip = True
This means only the channels in blacklistSport will be removed if we choose custom region.
I still need to add the rest of the Sky Sports HD channels and other regions but this seems to work maybe something similar can be added to ABM as we are still not sure what areas are effected users have the option to remove or not.
